To empower makers with trusted guidance, quality equipment, and real support from people who understand how kilns are actually used.
Kiln shopping should not be confusing.
Before Kiln Frog, most information available online came from the manufacturer’s point of view, not the user’s. We saw customers struggling to compare options, understand features, and figure out what they actually needed for their craft or business.
So, we decided to change that.
Launched from our craft supply store in San Antonio, Texas in 2010, Kiln Frog started with one line of kilns, some glass, a grinder, and a saw. Before that, we had already been selling kilns to artists and makers since 2001.
The rest, as they say, is history...
Our Daily Goal
Our daily goal is to provide honest, unbiased observations from brand to brand, along with practical solutions that make sense for the way you plan to use your equipment.
We work hard to be a reliable resource throughout your decision-making process, helping you compare options, understand features, and choose equipment with confidence.
Over the years, we have helped thousands of customers find the right kiln, oven, or furnace for their needs, and we would be happy to help you too.
We embrace everyone.
At Kiln Frog, our commitment to honest guidance and real-world solutions also shapes the way we work with our employees, customers, and suppliers.
We are committed to maintaining a workforce that represents different cultures, backgrounds, and viewpoints. We welcome employees and candidates who share our spirit and values, regardless of age, race, sexual orientation, physical or mental ability, gender identity, ethnicity, or religion.
A few questions we've been asked over the years
Why do you carry multiple brands of kilns?
Why do you carry multiple brands of kilns?
CUSTOMER FOCUS! Just like all people don't have the same size feet, all customers don't have the same kiln needs. Potters don't need the same kilns as knife makers, jewelers, scientists, and glass makers. Each kiln company configures their kilns differently and offers different models, etc. It's all about choices!
We want to match the right customer with the right kiln regardless of the manufacturer. This means being loyal to our customers needs, not to our vendors.
Why do you carry the brands that you do?
Why do you carry the brands that you do?
SERVICE FOCUS! The brands we carry have all committed to a partnership of servicing the customer with KilnFrog. We have established a long-term relationship of trust with them to honor our commitment to service and customer satisfaction.
That means if you're not happy, then neither are we. We all work together to make sure the customer is happy in the end. We're proud to represent them as brand partners.
